Hi Sofia,
Thank you for sharing with us your concern.
Usually, the use of Zentel (albendazole) is not associated with weight gain, so I do not think it will cause you to gain weight.
Commonly, patients experience increase in hunger, which might be associated with weight gain.
So, eat healthy, keep good hygiene and exercised to continue with your actual weight or to stay slim&fit.
Hope it helped!
